What Motorhome magazine August 2016 Edición anterior

You know the feeling. You think you want a brand-new motorhome when you first go onto a dealer's forecourt, but then you see a nice model from 2014 that’s from a marque you thought you couldn’t afford, and really, how much can have gone wrong with it in just a couple of years?

This month in our Ultimate Showdown we have tried to iron out some of these issues. We’ve taken a typical price range that many buyers aim for – between £40,000 and £50,000. We’ve then chosen five all-new and five used ’vans you can buy for that sort of money. Find out why we think your prize buys should be among these 10 motorhomes – all supplied by Marquis Leisure.

We also check out Hillside’s Doveridge, a VW T6 campervan with a nifty little kitchen and toilet in the rear, as well as the Toyota Alphard petrol/electric hybrid, and find out how one of Dethleffs’ 4-travel low-profiles with a lengthways drop-down bed works out on an extended test.

As for intriguing new layouts, don’t miss our first glimpse of the new Chausson, with two drop-down single beds for ultimate flexibility day and night.
